Re: D44 and 12 bolt rebuild kit

My concern would be the quality of the bearings (Chinese?). I bet you can buy Timken/National for the same money.

Unless you are changing the gearset or case, there's no need to change the shims.
Although GM will tell you not re-use the cast iron side shims (easy to break), most people do.
